Hello everybody! My name is Cees and I live in Gouda in the Netherlands. I'm 25 years old an I work as an airline pilot for KLM.
I've been daytrading now for about 1,5-2 years and made huge steps already, but I'm still missing an edge I feel to become profitable. Currently I'm trading with about a 25%-30% accuracy going for 2R or nothing, so I'm about 10% short of becoming a successful and profitable daytrader. I'm mainly looking for Pullbacks and 3 Bar plays and recently also for Opening Range Breakouts. Right now I'm mostly trading in the simulator still to protect my capital until I feel I've found what's needed to become profitable. I came across BBT on YouTube and read all Andrew's books by now.
The thing I've been struggling the most with is accepting any losses at all. They're obviously always going to happen, maybe even over 50% of the time shooting for 2R. But to me they always felt as failures and as an airline pilot, not succeeding 50% of the time is of course unacceptable. If anybody has any tips with it or any similar experiences please let me know and I'd love to get in touch with anybody to share experiences or to share trades and insights.
What I expect from the BBT community is just some community feedback and support and also to look at others and maybe give some feedback and support. I hope it'll help me find my edge and become successful and profitable over the next years.
Thanks a lot all anyways and I'm looking forward to talking to you all in the upcoming time!
